2. Fight

1395 Words
We all enter Mr. Thompson's office and stand there in line. The two groups have a small space between them as one stands on the left side in a line and the other on the right side.  "So, I am not here to scold you all because I know that will be of no help," Mr. Thompson says while moving behind his dark wooden table and sitting on the black leather chair and continues, "I want to inform you that, our university is celebrating it's 100 years anniversary as you might all know or at least I hope so. So, I want you all.. no no no...... I warn you all to behave yourself or the consequences will not be of your liking. And of course, this all was for all of you except Liza because she has something called sense, unlike you all." Mr. Thompson says and drawing his attention towards me, he continues, "Liza, I request you to please keep your friends under control to prevent any kind of fight." He says smiling weakly towards me. "You all have to tolerate each other and stay away because this is just not any function but an important occasion and on the last day of the celebration we will have a very important and honorable businessman here who is the heir of the family who led to this university's foundation." Mr. Thompson says glaring towards Lance for I don't know what. "So, now Liza I want you to supervise everything as you did always and you can ask for help from the children who are ready to provide their helping hand." Mr. Thompson says. "Sure, sir," I say nodding. Every time Mr. Thompson gave me the responsibility to see to the arrangements and so this time also I'm in charge and this was the reason I didn't have sufficient time to prepare for that stupid test and I decided to prepare for it on weekend and didn't spend my time with my brother.  This celebration will be conducted for four continuous days. On the first we will have the retired professors then on the second day we'll have ex-students then on the third day we'll have a little too old ex-students and then finally on the last and the fourth day we'll have us..... I mean the current students, professors, and the chief guest. Well, exactly the teachers will have their celebration along with the chief guest in the evening but they will still be there with us. "So now that I have made myself clear, all of you can leave except Liza." says our VP. Everybody turns to leave and Stacey and Max bump into each other as they try to move out first. "Watch where you moving asshole!" shouts Stacey. "Well, I could say the same bi...." starts Max but is cut off by Mr. Thompson who literally growls towards them, "SHUT UP!!, just Shut Up all of you, just now I told you to tolerate each other and again you started your stupid fight." Mr. Thompson says and lets out a deep breath, then continues, "Max and group move out first and then others will move." He instructs. Max, Andrea, Jake leave but Dexton stays behind and gestures the others to move out first. Lance moves out glaring at Dexton and glancing and smirking towards me. At last, Dexton takes a step forward towards me, "I'll wait for you outside, hmmm?" He says nodding to which I respond by nodding and smiling. He returns me his sweet smile and moves out. I turn around and see Mr. Thompson moving from his chair towards me, "Liza, I really meant it when I said that you have to try to keep your friends under control. I know this is something impossible but still please try and keep the two groups separately because you know better than anyone how they fought in nearly every function. Other children of the university are literally waiting for the fight to start, they aren't interested in any function but in their fight." He says and I feel bad how he has to request in front of me. "I'll try my best to keep them away and I've always tried but I don't how, it's like they find their way to each other. And yes, one thing I can assure you that the fight will not start from our side and I will try my best to prevent it and keep the situation under control." I say smiling towards him giving him assurance. I know this is something impossible..? but still I'll try as I've always been doing. I remember how they fought in previous celebrations because of Lance who always tries to advance towards me and that is when Dexton enters the picture. Dexton doesn't intervene until Lance does and Lance always intervenes to say something related to me or insult Dexton. "Thank you, dear." Mr. Thomson says and a student comes rushing towards us and says what we were talking about to prevent. Well, this is no wonder how all the students know about the two groups because no matter if we know them or not but all other children do know us since day one, thanks to them for fighting on our very first day. "Liza, come with me," says Mr. Thompson and I follow him to witness the scene we were discussing how to prevent. Mr. Thompson runs towards the basketball ground and I follow him running trying to catch up with his speed, Seriously! who runs that fast and that too when you are aged. I reach the basketball ground ignoring the remarks that I was getting. Everybody was mumbling among themselves but they are loud enough for me to hear them, "Look! Look! the peacemaker is here!", one of the students says and I ignore him making my way through the crowd.  I reach there and see Dexton straddling Lance and throwing punches at him furiously. Well, that was not a new sight for me to witness but it's still scary, but one thing that I don't understand is that how the heck they recover so freaking fast and that too without any marks left. Well, must be some super expensive cream and it isn't like that they recover fast when they engage in a fight which causes them fracture cause then I would've doubted them to be werewolves.  Werewolves! well now some of you guys must be chuckling after knowing that I believe in such things but what can I do, they have been my interest since I can remember. My dad used to say that my mom read a lot of werewolves novels when I was in her womb which caused me to be their fan and so when my mom was carrying my baby brother, dad didn't allow her to have any more werewolves stuff as he already witnessed me writing and reading about them.  I come out of my trance seeing Mr. Thompson ordering them to stop in his deep authoritative voice. I look around and notice Andrea and Max verbally fighting with Stacey and Samantha, not leaving any curse words behind and even inventing new ones. I mean who says 'farty fart b***h', well none other than Max. I see Jake too verbally fighting with Nate and Jeremy. But all of them are standing together and answering each other but Lance and Dexton seem to be in their own world.  Lance stops struggling and others too stop their verbal fight but Dexton keeps on throwing punches at Lance which causes him to again struggle, totally ignoring Mr. Thompson. Seeing this others too continue with their fighting and well needless to say all others are enjoying it. "I said, STOP!!!" Mr. Thompson yells which makes me shiver and again they look at him, well all except Dexton. To prevent more fights and well to stop the entertainment for the others I walk up to Dexton, tears brimming my eyes, and pull him trying to get him off Lance. He looks at me and his eyes soften seeing me. I pull him off Lance who stands and clean his clothes parting any dust with his hands. "Everybody leaves and you all come to the principal's office right away." Mr. Thompson orders and starts moving towards the principal's office. 'Just great...'
